Berry Club by J.L. Westlover (@mrlovenstein)
Knott’s Berry Farm is a house of lies.
OG blueberry still a member, chillaxin with the other true berries.
Fun fact: Strawberry is called an accessory fruit because its seeds are on the outside, so the seeds themselves are the real “fruits” (in the same way each grain of rice or wheat is itself a fruit, well technically the fruit consists of the grain plus the outer pod/husk that gets removed when harvested). The red flesh we like to eat is the accessory fruit because it in itself does not contain seeds.
Raspberries and blackberries are called aggregate fruits because they’re essentially many fruits attached together as a single structure. Actually, a strawberry is called an aggregate accessory fruit because it has many “fruits” directly attached to an accessory structure.
If every Uni professor started each lecture with "fun fact: " I bet I’d learn alot more
No, bananas are berries.
So aggregates are whole different class of fruit?! I thought it would have been a subcategory
Melons and pumpkins are called Panzerbeeren by german botanists.

I can’t be bothered to look up the actual translation, so that is what I’m calling them from now on.
Feels like Daria debunking the Fashion Club.
